T-88 will cure in temperatures as low as 35°F which makes it an excellent choice for homebuilders living in colder climates. It is recommended by the builders of many types of homebuilt aircraft and is excellent for bonding aluminum, steel or wood.

Does not smell when mixed and msds sheet lists no known carcinogens or harmful effects to skin or lungs. Latex gloves are strongly recommended due to allergic reaction with skin over time. Use with System Three Clear Coat to seal soft woods prior to gluing. Full joint strength is still maintained according to manufacturer. They sent me an email to confirm this.
